    Default Erm. Hi?

    Just noticed something on the guest strips page.

    Yes I signed up for this. Wide image in spoiler (not really wide, but wider than the rules say).

    You know, Freud himself would never have agreed with that.

    Of course, Freud is mostly discredited these days.

    My reaction:









    I think the bigger issue here is how V is drawn female, and not at all androgynous.

    Clearly the artist forgot which one was supposed to have an ambiguous gender

    Looks like an androgynous guy to me.

    ...Talk about a sneak attack.

    Probably just an oversight by the artist, a friend of mine got a tattoo on their ribs that accidentally looks like a part of the male anatomy. Point being, sometimes a design just looks like a wiener doesn't look like what the artist intended.

    What... what are we looking at here? Is it supposed to look like a wang? Because it doesn't look anything like that to me.

    She stole a Rod of Lordly Might, or her pants got torn and the other pant leg is hanging down in the middle.

    It's a fold in her garment, with her foot visible beyond it.

    Her foot is the tip. Notice how her leg is bent.

    I sort of see what you mean, but that makes her leg pretty short.

    No it doesn't. It makes the lower leg about the same length as the upper leg, which they tend to be.

    Or, in this case, an unfortunately-draped garment.

    you'd think Elan would have noticed by now. But maybe not.

    I think it's the table that's pretty short.

    I know I'm stealing this from someone else. But it's SO FUNNY

    Zweisteine quoting Razanir:

    "I am a human sixtyfourthling! Fear my minimal halfling ancestry!"

    Bagnold could be one sixty-fourth halfling.

    Actually, it's perspective. Her leg is projecting towards the viewer, just at a slight angle so we can see the side of her thigh and calf. Mostly, her knee is facing the viewer as she rests her folded leg on the table.

    So, it's an exceptionally low table, but a perfectly normal leg and foot as far as I can see.
